Horse show in Albi

This weekend at the exhibition hall in Albi is the 2017 Salon du Cheval. Exhibitors staged a procession into the city centre yesterday (Friday 3rd March) where they were blessed by the curé.

Horses and riders blessed in Albi

The weekend will have shows of every aspect of horses and riders, from thoroughbred race horses to shetland ponies, tack and riding outfits, conferences and presentations. In addition presentations of western (ie cowboy) style riding will be given in the Zenith open air venue.
Sadly the horrible weather is forecast for the weekend, so outdoor events may be affected.

About Me

I have had a life with books. Moving from Middlesbrough to Manchester Public Library then Bolton, where I ran a Branch Library. My interest has always been children's and illustrated classic literature so when I started my bookselling career, this is what I decided to specialise in.I think my background in Libraries and the knowledge I gained there set me on the path to becoming a very successful bookseller and I gained first membership of the PBFA [Provincial Booksellers Assoc.] and then a couple of years later was admitted to the prestigious ABA [Antiquarian Booksellers Assoc.] Having the courage to exhibit at Book Fairs in the USA made a huge difference. We moved to France in 2001 and have never regretted that decision
